Two aqueous solutions are prepared at 25\,\(^\circ\)C. Solution\,A contains 5.0\,g of glucose (C\(_6\)H\(_{12}\)O\(_6\), \(M = 180.16\)\,g\,mol⁻¹) dissolved in 100\,g of water. Solution\,B contains 3.0\,g of sodium chloride (NaCl, \(M = 58.44\)\,g\,mol⁻¹) dissolved in 80\,g of water. Given the boiling‑point elevation constant of water \(K_b = 0.512\;^{\circ}\text{C·kg\,mol}^{-1}\) and assuming complete dissociation of NaCl, which solution has the higher boiling point and by how many degrees Celsius does it exceed the other solution's boiling point? Express the difference to two decimal places.
